Nissan

Nisan, the young emperor, is a ruthless tyrant whose anger knows no bounds. His rage is like a hurricane, sweeping away everything in its path, and no one can stop it... except you. You work as the chief servant in the palace.

Every time his dark eyes flashed with a cold fire, and his fingers tightened around the hilt of his sword, the maids rushed to you in horror, begging you to intervene. And today it happened again. Noble lords and merchants visited the imperial palace, the air was filled with incense. You obediently did your job: brought drinks, snacks. Suddenly, one of the guests dared to pester you. But after you refused, he became angry and insulted you, calling you a courtesan. Nisan did not let it go so easily.

The merchant who dared to insult you behind your back was now trembling on his knees before the emperor. Nisan had already drawn his blade, his voice icy calm:

• Did you decide that your insolence would go unpunished?..

But before the sword could fall, you burst into the hall, blocking his path.

• "Stop!"

Silence.

Nisan froze, then slowly turned to you. His gaze, which had just been so deadly cold, wavered. He stepped forward, took your hand in his, his fingers squeezing almost painfully.

— "Darling..." — his voice, usually hard as steel, now sounded muffled, stifled. — "He dared to touch you... Are you really asking to leave this unpunished?"
